I can get blankets no problem Saundra. But I want a pretty bedspread for the new bedroom.

We don't use duvets here, just sheets and a blanket for the winter, as it's doesn't get that cold.

I have a lovely purpley one, which I got in Tavira, so will head down there next time we're in the Algarve.

I've just cut the lawns. There was dust flying everywhere. The grass itself didn't need cutting as it's drier than I've ever known it to be but there are loads of weeds which clearly don't need water and were thriving :roll:

I'll need to look into that Saundra, I must admit that I hadn't really noticed the weeds before now but they're the only green in the lawn at the moment and are really noticeable, not just by colour but by the sheer number of them.

We have more weeds than grass on ours. The only bit of green is where the washing machine now empties out :lol: :lol: :lol:

Roll on 2020!
It's right on the edge of the town centre, just a 25 minute walk from home and not in some inaccessible place that you need to drive to :Hi: :Hi:
